Han Fei gave the order.
Gu Qi, who had already moved closer, gritted his teeth and immediately lunged toward the Light Shadow Stone, trying to press the button.
Meanwhile.
The Wind Eagle Armor had already vented some of its fury and was walking toward them.
"Heh heh, Black Star Group, Han Fei, I know you! You're rich. I used to hate people like you the most, but now... heh heh, if you're willing to give me the Black Star Group, I can spare your life."
Han Fei merely watched.
Without saying a word.
The captain beside him seized the moment. "Fire!!"
Rat-a-tat-tat!
Rifle and machine-gun rounds flew everywhere.
Faced with humanity's weapons, the Wind Eagle Armor instinctively shrank back at first. Yet once the storm of bullets passed, they had failed to penetrate it.
"Hahahaha, Han Fei, you idiot, thanks for giving me this power, I..."
Han Fei's expression turned strange.
Looking at the white marks on the armor, he shook his head.
"That makes sense. I vaguely remember some of the settings. Aside from energy, an armor's strength is also related to the wearer's own strength and willpower. This guy is just too weak."
As for the man's shouting, Han Fei paid it no attention at all.
Buzz.
A soft sound rang out.
The resonance device shut down.
The still-glowing Light Shadow Stone gradually dimmed and lost its radiance.
!!!
The Wind Eagle Armor, which had still been spewing obscenities, seemed to sense something and finally looked toward the Light Shadow Stone.
"You bastards!"
With an enraged roar, the Wind Eagle Armor sprinted over at tremendous speed, arriving in the blink of an eye.
The bullets had failed to stop it. No, the shooters simply could not keep up with it. It had not yet surpassed the speed of bullets.
Bang!
A muffled impact sounded.
The security captain actually threw away his firearm and charged forward, blocking the Wind Eagle Armor with a punch.
Cracking his neck.
He threw another punch.
The Wind Eagle Armor clearly had no intention of tangling with him. It dodged aside, intending to circle around.
But just then.
The armor on its body began to disassemble.
It turned out that Gu Qi had pressed the button earlier. After losing its energy supply, the armor had still held on for several minutes.
But now, it was over.
"What? No! Don't!"
Han Fei cast a disdainful glance at it. He could not be bothered wasting words on such an idiot, someone who became arrogant and lost all reason the moment he gained an advantage.
The security captain, however, shook his head regretfully. He had thought he would finally have a worthy opponent to test the power he had gained. (Blood Orchid Potion)
An Hour-Long Armor Warrior
Han Fei looked at the Light Shadow Stone floating inside the glass cylinder, emitting a faint glow, his gaze deep.
The five great Light Shadow Stones, the supernatural beasts, the Bright Realm, the Shadow Realm, and especially that invincible armor—the Emperor.
The worldbuilding of Armor Warrior was vast, cosmic in scale. By his estimates, once the five armors were worn, they should possess the strength of an ordinary First-generation Super Soldier. If explored further, they might reach the second generation. As for their peak state, he did not know whether they would be quasi-third-generation half-Divine Bodies or true Third Generation Divine Bodies.
Wait, he could not classify them so crudely.
The worlds were different, after all.
Specific problems required specific analysis.
Still, even so, the appearance of the Wind Eagle Armor signified that he finally had the ability to survive, and even resist, the coming disaster.
"Black Star, based on your observations over this period, is the Light Shadow Stone bloodline radiation technology mature yet?"
"There have been 123 human test subjects. Based on probability, the success rate is as high as ninety-eight percent. Furthermore, failure is not fatal and will only result in temporary unconsciousness."
"Good."
"Black Star, take control of this base."
"Yes."
"Owner authorization is required."
"I am Han Fei. Authorization approved."
After a series of complicated verifications.
Streams of data appeared on the nearby computer screen. In the blink of an eye, control of the entire base fell into Black Star's hands.
"From now on, secure Laboratory One. No one is allowed to enter, leave, or transmit information. Kill any violators immediately."
The security captain, who had already restrained the young test subject, hurriedly summoned his team members.
Gu Qi, meanwhile, busied himself preparing things for Han Fei.
"Black Star, begin."
"Yes. As a precaution, follow-up treatment measures have been prepared."
Han Fei's face darkened.
"Enough. Begin."
Lying in the white room, Han Fei looked at the ceiling.
As his words fell.
The entire room became slightly dimmer.
An undetectable wave passed through Han Fei's body and touched the Light Shadow Stone in the corner of the room. In an instant.
The Light Shadow Stone flared brightly, and a stream of energy spread through the room along that wave.
At that moment, Han Fei felt his body suddenly grow warm.
It was like soaking in a sauna, hot and steamy. Gradually, Han Fei actually fell asleep amid that comfort.
In the darkness.
Han Fei seemed to feel that he had touched a planet.
But it vanished in an instant.
He desperately tried to approach it, yet only managed to close the distance slightly.
Within that light.
Han Fei awoke.
He stared blankly at the ceiling, somewhat dazed.
"Master?"
Black Star's distorted voice came from the player beside him.
"I'm fine."
As Han Fei spoke, he slowly sat up and clenched his fists, sensing the vibrant power within him.
Unlike the others, whose modifications merely improved their bodies, he felt that his own transformation might have been more thorough. He even felt that, without holding the Wood Light Shadow Stone, he could still fight in an energy-filled state for an hour.
As for the reason, perhaps it was related to his mastery of Eight Extremes Heaven and his extremely powerful physical condition.
In short, he was now an hour-long Wind Eagle Armor Warrior.
"Wind Eagle Armor, combine!"
A powerful, brimming sensation filled his entire body. He felt that he had completely surpassed mortals now.
With one punch, he blasted straight through the iron bed.
With a thought.
The armor vanished.
He would conduct a thorough test of the armor's performance later.
And honestly, he wanted to see whether the armor could be mass-produced. It did not need to be particularly powerful; at the very least, it would be another means at his disposal.
Han Fei walked out of the room, gestured to the others, and came before the Light Shadow Stone.
Feeling that vast power, a trace of desire flashed through Han Fei's eyes. If he could completely absorb it, he would definitely become a god.
It was simply an instinctive feeling.
"Unfortunately, I can only use it for an hour. Once it runs out, it has to be recharged. That means it can't really be considered my own power."
Han Fei thought somewhat greedily.
Still, there would always be opportunities to truly strengthen himself in the future.
Shaking his head, he focused on the present.
"All right, everyone, come over."
Everyone gathered around.
"Congratulations. You have successfully completed your mission, and I will reward you. Everyone's year-end bonus will be doubled this year, and your families' benefits will also be improved."
"Gu Qi, from now on, you will be the person in charge here."
"You will handle all personnel promotions and demotions. I have only one requirement: in the time ahead, figure out how to solidify and make portable the energy of the Light Shadow Stone."
It was not that Han Fei had never considered satellite projection, but he was not a financial conglomerate, and this was not the Ugly Country. If he did that, he would simply be asking for trouble.
So this was his only option.
"Also, dig deeper into the potential of the Light Shadow Stone. As a researcher, aren't you curious about why a stone can form an entire suit of armor?"
"Yes, yes! I will definitely research it, definitely get it done! I will fulfill the mission!"
Gu Qi shouted fervently.
It was just that his bald head did not quite match the mood, giving the scene a rather odd feel.
After Han Fei said a few more words, he left with his people.
After Han Fei left, Gu Qi looked at the researchers and revealed a smug smile.
"Sucking up? I'm clearly sincere. Besides, if you suck up all the way to the end, you'll have everything!"
After leaving, Han Fei did not go home. Instead, he immediately went to a private hospital he had invested in and underwent a comprehensive examination.
The results were very pleasing.
"Master, your current vitality is exceptionally vigorous. Some minor hidden issues and old injuries in your body have also disappeared. You are expected to live to the human lifespan limit of 150 years."
"Furthermore, the tests found no side effects. This is merely a pure enhancement, along with the added ability to absorb Light Shadow Stone energy. By conventional standards, it is highly worthwhile."
Han Fei nodded. "I feel very comfortable now. My Eight Extremes Heaven martial arts should be able to advance another level too."
"I hope I can master Golden Horizon as soon as possible."
"Based on your description, that requires certain extreme environments. Earth currently does not possess such conditions."
